Single tooth replacement in the esthetic zone has been one of the most common indications for dental implant placement. In cases of compromised sites with bone loss/gingival recessions, the clinical scenario presents a different dilemma.
The Immediate Dentoalveolar Restoration (IDR) is a technique established to broaden indications for immediate loading on individual teeth. In this way, tissue losses with varied extensions are reconstructed in the same surgical session of implant placement and provisional crown installation, reducing the number of interventions and keeping predictability on esthetic aspects.
In the lecture we will discuss the scientific basis, the step by step technique and indications. The IDR technique, which advocates minimally invasive surgery, flapless procedures, is presented as a viable and reproducable alternative.
We will also present several cases, which showed one or more compromised cortical alveolar of the tooth involved, with or without changes of the gingival margin, some with more than 8 years of clinical, radiographic and CT scan follow-up.
